No smoking/vaping on castle property; you will need to go to the parking lot to do so. Weapons (guns and knives) are prohibited, including props such as swords, daggers, maces, javelins, etc. If it could be classified as a weapon, please leave it at home. Walking sticks and staves are appropriate. The castle will have security onsite, and they will confiscate anything that violates these rules as well as escorting you out for the remainder of the event.

Fantasy Best! Please visit the "Attire" page.

This will be a 16+ event; no exceptions.

This will be a dry wedding. No alcohol allowed onsite.

A salad, a beef or chicken entrée, potatoes, and vegetables. There will be a baked potato bar with sour cream, butter, bacon, chive, and cheddar cheese.

Guests will turn off their phones before the ceremony and place them in a complimentary pouch for the rest of the night (it will stay with you the entire night, you will NOT be leaving your phone with a stranger).

For those of you who haven't been to a wedding recently, at unplugged ceremonies guests are asked not to use their phones and to keep them hidden during the entire event generally for these three reasons:

1. The couple wants their photos to look timeless. Cellphones in the shot immediately date a photo; much like cars and graphic tees! The couple wants the photos to be so ageless that they could have been taken any year.

2. The couple doesn't want cellphone photos floating around before they get to see their professional photos. Couples spend a lot of time and money on professional photographers to ensure the photos are everything they dreamed of. There is no worse feeling than waiting two weeks for your professional photos, only for a family member or friend to post a bunch of iPhone shots of you walking down the aisle, throwing your bouquet, dancing with your new spouse, and eating dinner the day after the wedding on Facebook. Especially because, when the couple does share their professional photos, many people no longer even bother looking at them because they've already seen phone shots from guests the day after the wedding. Please let the photographers do their job; you will get the photo you want after the event!

3. The couple wants everybody to participate in the merriment, not stare at their phone. So much time and love has gone into planning the event and making every moment special and beautiful; the couple would really appreciate the guests living in the moment with them.

Professional photos will be forwarded to every person who attends once the bride and groom have received them!

While not everybody may understand or agree with this style of wedding, by RSVPing and attending this event you are promising the couple that you will do your part by following their rules for the night. They are supplying food, entertainment, music, and hopefully a night you'll never forget- on top of trusting you to be there at such an important moment for them as a couple. The least you can do is honor their wishes by not sneaking in alcohol, keeping your phone hidden, and leaving your small children at home.
